Biggest picks of the week so far are the Colts, Cardinals, Browns and Chargers

Colts are by far the biggest favorites. Thou shalt not pick the biggest favorite.... But damn if I'm not sorely tempted.

Not many teams go out to the desert and win. Second highest altitude in the league behind Denver. Hard to see Lions compete.

Browns. I don't know about this one. Cincy had some holes in their defensive line last week but the Redskin front 7 is their strength. Yes they've had ten days to prepare and the Skins are on the second leg of a road trip.... Just hard to trust Baker the Shit-taker. That game last week was close. Cleveland had some pass richer on D but not much else.

Chargers v Panthers .... No Christian McCaffery. Herbert's got an arm and about best the Chiefs last week. Caveat is that they didn't plan for him.... Will he look more like a rookie this week? I'm thinking he might be good again but eventually teams will have enough film on him to make him come back down to earth.

Besides these obvious picks, anyone have anything under the radar?

I would look hard at the Falcons

Bears are 2-0 but should probably be 0-2. Week 1 Detroit allows 21 4th qtr points and Bears steal the game. Week 2 the Bears lead 17-0 at HT vs the Giants without Saquan only to see the Giants shut them out the entire 2nd half and have a chance for the win on a last play inside the 10 yd line. Falcons have lost to the Seahawks (2-0) and Cowboys and yes last weeks loss to the Cowboys has to weigh heavy on them but I think they move past it and roll the Bears.

Falcons by 10+

Good reasoning kid. Honestly, I would expect a defeat like this to affect college kids the next week but professionals should be able to get over it. Should. Good Lord though, it's The Dirty we're talking about. However, the one thing they can do is score. The Bears have not shown they can do that yet.

For anyone considering taking Atlanta, check Julio Jones status tomorrow morning. He aggravated an old left hamstring injury last week at Big D and didn't practice Wed.

I ended up taking the Cards in one also. Would roll with the Falcons in the other but still haven't heard about Julio Jones. Deciding between Cleveland and Tennessee.....
